In 2006, Atlus released a small JRPG on the PlayStation 2 called Persona 3. It was a strange title where you had to balance life as a high school student, building friendships while protecting humanity from disturbing monsters during a hidden hour of the day known as the Dark Hour.
It was regarded as a cult-classic title among JRPG enthusiasts for its memorable characters, intriguing storyline tackling complex themes, and unique gameplay style blending turn-based battles, dungeon crawling, and visual novels. This game would also lay the foundation for Persona’s journey into becoming the popular franchise it is today.
